Go test PvP mechanics , or dont . it's up to you
But it's the assumption that the server is there for you to PLAY on that is flawed.
But PvP is a game style , and i will argue that it is the future of all MMO's , so if you want to help everquest
go test PvP mechanics and help solve bug issues , and feedback on what you like and don't like
The quests can be tested on the other server ...with me ..the other server ...
This server is being used atm to test PvP , imagine that a test server , being used to test new PvP gear
a new PvP token system , new PvP clickable items , and with the priest of discord lots of new possibilities to test.
So at least pretend you want to test something that cant just as easily be done on the OTHER server ....
Good points, some things you missed though - YOU want to test PVP mechanics, great more power to you, test to your hearts convent and file a multitude of /bug reports to assist the developers in makeing YOUR play style more to YOUR liking, now since PVE players would like to do the EXACT SAME THING for their play style, give them the ability to do so without being attacked or being able to attack those that believer in the alternate lifestyle. Resepct and coopreation goes both ways here. Have never attacked anyone on the alternate lifestyle server yet, but have been attacked multiple times by pvp orientated players while trying to test something.
You are 100 percent incorrect in your statement "This server is being used atm to test PvP , imagine that a test server , being used to test new PvP gear" The server is being used to test BOTH facets of the GU changes, not just the PVP changes, so give us the ability to test both one the dame server, not a hard thing since they have the basis for it in eq1. It is not possible to test some of the changes from the GU without a form of test copy. Great will happily go to the other server, as along as the ability to test copy there is given to the pve testers also, if not then it cannot be tested effectively and is a invalid environment and will not effectively test anything.
Again I disagree with the comment that pvp is a playstle and is the future of all onlie games, it maybe your future but if it comes down to that I will stop playing online games completely. Not everyone enjoys that alternate life style.
The more accurate version of your statement 'So at least pretend you want to test something that cant just as easily be done on the OTHER server .... "
"So at least pretend you want to test something and leave those that want to test the PVE changes alone, especially when asked politely...."
That fits better
